These figures were worked out on the current electricity cost in Malta, where 1 kWh costs â¬0.16 and 1 kWh produces 0.871 kg of CO 2. Taking into consideration all the 213 pharmacies in the Maltese islands, a total of â¬149,100 can be saved, and around 852,000 kg of CO 2 can be avoided every year.
    The Long answer, they are very similar, but not exactly the same.     Escitalopram, which is the trade/brand name of Lexapro is a âpurerâ form of Celexa (generically known as Citalopram).   Lexapro (i.e. Escitalopram) is the (S) enatntiomer of racemic Citalopram (i.e. Celexa).
So I asked my doctor to shift me to lexapro ( aka Cipralex, Escitalopram) against his recommendations because I could not deal with the side effects of Paxil. I have been on Lexapro for almost 2 months but my OCD did not subside, in fact I still engage in my rituals but they are not as severe. I was just wondering if anyone knows from experience if Lexapro is used for OCD. Most websites say that Lexparo is for depression and anxiety with no mention of OCD.
